Jennie Collins.

Sixteen years ago, Jennie Collins was
tailoress IN Boston working for her daily
bread. Born unto poverty, she had
gauged itsI depths for many years, during
which she had fought the battle of life
single handed and alone. She had meas
ured by personal experience the depriva-
tions and misery of the large class of shop
girls who lived in cheap boarding houses
and lodging-rooms, without resources and
without friends, in time of sickness and
trouble, But AT last, when more than
halfway through life, she won little
vantage ground for herself, and immedi-
ately FASTENED to realize her long-cherish-
ed dream of helping her less fortunate fel-
w-workers.
IF had called my place Headquarters
for Working Women or any other SINH
lar name, said Jennie. when criticised for
giving her humane establishment SO nCon

Rode and Tied"


DANIEL WEBsTEEs FIRST VISIT 10 MAINE.
About 1904, Daniel Webster who had
then just completed his legal studies, came
to the Pcnobscot, with view of finding
a location to settle in. He was accom-
panied by his brother Ezekiel. Having
but one horse between them, they rode
and tied, as the saying was that is, one
rode the horse for a time, and then
stopped and tied him, while the other
walked ON until he reached the tied horse,
which he mounted and rode in his turn I'M
til the other came up. Thus they accom-
plished their journey through Belfast,
Prospect and Frankfort to Bangor. In
old times our ancestors did not consider
that TIE bail of kettle is no longer when
down than when erect, and so built the
main road along our coast over the Bluff,
Mount Ephraim, and the Frankfort hills.
Looking off from one of these steep and
rugged ascents, Ezekiel remarked, 81 don't
know how we can get down here, Daniel /;
but yon take the horse by the bride, and
will follow on behind and hold on to his
tail when he is in danger of tipping overp'
Mr.. Webster related this anecdote dur
ing his subsequent visit to Maine.
